In the main hall, the emperor sat on the dragon throne in a dragon robe, exuding an aura of not being angry and arrogant, and twelve large pillars supported the entire hall.

The pillar is carved with a golden dragon flying, showing the royal majesty, and His Royal Highness, Su Qing sits on the throne given by the emperor, drinking the tea in his hand, and his gestures reveal his dignity.

The emperor was drinking tea and talking with him, and the conversation was on the rise, when the emperor's personal eunuch walked up to him, pointed his throat, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the eldest princess of Xichu asks to see you." ”

The emperor smiled on his face, and immediately returned to his usual unapproachable appearance, without the slightest hint of the joy just now, and said, "Let her in." ”

"Princess Xuanchang enters the palace." The chief eunuch waved the dust in his hand and shouted loudly towards the door.

After a while, Helan Yu'er hurriedly walked in, and when she first saw Su Qing, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, but it was fleeting.

"Attend the Emperor." The eldest princess bowed.

The emperor waved his hand, showed a hint of a smile, and said to her: "No courtesy, the eldest princess is here at this time, what is there to find me." ”

Although he was smiling, the emperor's prestige was indeed undiminished.

Su Qing sat next to him, looking at Helan Yu'er with a playful look in his eyes, and a meaningful smile hung on the corner of his mouth. It's interesting to know that you have been poisoned so quickly.

"Your Majesty, Yu'er has something to report." Helan Yu'er looked at Su Qing on the side with some provocation, even if you are poisoned, you can't do anything with this palace.

Just wanted to open his mouth to say that he had been poisoned, but a magical voice in his head told him, "Tell the emperor that you want to cancel the marriage contract." ”

She shook her head, as if she wanted to shake off the idea, but she sank deeper and deeper, her gaze was a little glazed, as if her soul was out of a shell.

"Your Majesty, Yu'er wants to ......" Before she finished speaking, the words of the imperial doctor sounded in her head again, and she immediately stopped.

Turning her head to see Su Qing's appearance of being determined to win, she was a little panicked, afraid that she would finally say the words of canceling the marriage contract.

At this time, it is not a good time to tell the emperor, or to go for the upper plan, and it must not be controlled by him, Helan Yuer thought to herself.

"Your Majesty, Yu'er, Yu'er is a little unwell, so she retired first."

The day passed relatively peacefully, but it is difficult to say whether it was the calm before the storm.

Early the next morning, the leader of the palace guards hurriedly came to the palace to report to the emperor: "See the emperor, Xichu...... The envoy of Western Chu was assassinated last night. ”

The envoys of Western Chu came for the marriage of Helan Yuer and Su Qing, and originally planned to return to the country on the same day, but now they are dying in the capital.

"Come on, quickly tell the prince about this matter, I will give him full authority to deal with it, so that he must find out the real culprit."

Puyang Haoyue was still a little confused after receiving the holy decree, and when he hurried to the restaurant where the envoys of Western Chu temporarily lived, detained all the relevant people, and then disposed of the bodies of the envoys of Western Chu, he immediately put them on death row.

After some torture, he always felt that this matter was inseparable from Su Qing, so the prince decided to go back to the restaurant again to investigate, and sure enough, he found some clues. He secretly cleaned up the traces, and he was not so anxious when he knew the bottom of his heart, and he still went to the prison to torture him every day, and then went back to the emperor to say that these people were too hard-mouthed.

This matter has been dragging on, and no matter how you deal with it, you can't have anything to do with Su Qing, and Puyang Haoyue still knows this. Now he and Su Qing are grasshoppers on the same rope, one is prosperous and the other is lost.

After the rain, the sky is clear, the air is fresh, and the sun shines on the flowers and plants in the imperial garden, and the raindrops on the flowers and plants are particularly beautiful under the sun.

Helan Yu'er, who was in her room, looked at the scenery outside the window, and she called the maid to take a walk in the imperial garden and relax.

As soon as she stepped into the Imperial Garden, before she began to enjoy the good scenery in front of her, Helan Yu'er saw Su Qing walking towards her not far away.

She was a little weak-hearted, but the other party obviously saw herself, and now she turned around and left, she inevitably looked a little deserted and fled, Helan Yu'er stabilized her mind and decided to continue walking.

Su Qing was dressed in white, wearing a sachet and a jade ring around his waist, his hair was tied high with a jade crown, and his whole person exuded a noble atmosphere.

He walked up to Helan Yu'er and stood still, looking at her condescendingly, the good-looking Jun had no expression on his face, and he looked indifferent.

Being looked at by him like this, Helan Yu'er was a little uncomfortable, and she was on the disadvantaged side, which made her very insecure.

"Su Qing, what are you looking at this palace?" Helan Yu'er decided to strike preemptively and questioned him first.

"What am I doing, I should ask you this." Su Qing said with a cold face.

The deep voice also reveals a hint of chill, making people feel like they are in the cold winter.

"You don't hesitate to ask me to marry you by all means, don't you feel inferior yourself?" Su Qing glanced at Helan Yu'er and continued to mock.

The first time someone scolded herself for being cheap, Helan Yu'er's face suddenly turned red with anger, the green tendons in her temples loomed, and her fists clenched unconsciously.

She looked up and glared fiercely at the outrageous man.

Such a gaze did not have the slightest deterrent effect on Su Qing, and he walked unhurriedly in front of Helan Yu'er.

"I warn you one last time, don't use any more crooked brains, or I will try my tricks." Su Qing dropped this sentence and walked away, not caring about Helan Yu'er behind him at all.

Helan Yu'er, who had been holding back her tears, finally couldn't help it, and after Su Qing left, she squatted on the ground as if she had been evacuated, crying silently.

When the palace maid behind her saw the eldest princess like this, no one dared to step forward to persuade her, so she could only stay here with the princess.

A figure flashed among the flowers, and an inconspicuous little eunuch remembered all the scenes that had happened.

Shangshu Mansion, in the study, Lu Qingyao sat on a chair, carrying a cup of tea in her hand, she took a little sip of tea, picked up the handkerchief pinned to her waist and wiped the remaining tea on her mouth.

The inconspicuous little eunuch stood respectfully below at this time, and after half a sound, Lu Qingyao said, "What you said is true." ”

"These are what the slaves have seen with their own eyes and heard with their own ears, and they will never be wrong." The little eunuch said firmly.

"Okay, you go back first, continue to do my eyeliner, and come to Shangshu Mansion to inform me immediately if something happens." Lu Qingyao said with an expression on his face.

"The slave knows." With that, the little eunuch bowed his head and respectfully withdrew from the study.

Lu Qingyao pondered alone in the study, since the relationship between Su Qing and Helan Yu'er was not good, then she was a chess piece that she could use.

Thinking like this, Lu Qingyao's beautiful face showed a sly smile, which looked particularly mad.

In the room, vases and jade were scattered all over the place, and Helan Yu'er, who came back from the Imperial Garden, seemed to be crazy, smashed all the porcelain and jade in the room, and drove the palace maids out.

Tired of smashing, Helan Yu'er sat on the ground, looking extremely helpless and pitiful. The news of her humiliation in the Imperial Garden had long since spread throughout the palace, and on the way, she felt that the eyes of the people looked at her were full of mockery and pity.

Lu Qingyao walked through the courtyard and came to Helan Yu'er's door, looking at the mess in the room, his eyes were full of disdain.

Standing outside the door for a while, hiding the emotion in his eyes, Lu Qingyao put a warm smile on the corner of his mouth, raised his feet and walked in.

"What's wrong with the eldest princess, having such a big temper?" When she walked in, she asked pretending to be concerned.

Lu Qingyao walked in front of Helan Yu'er, squatted down, and stretched out his hand, wanting to help her up.

Helan Yu'er waved her hand away, and said angrily: "Hmph, Lu Qingyao, don't be pretty, you are also embarrassed to come to see the palace." ”

Lu Qingyao didn't care, stood up, straightened the skirt on his body, clapped his hands, and walked to the side and sat down.

After a while, she spoke: "Eldest princess, I didn't come to see your jokes, on the contrary, I came to help you." ”

"Help Bengong, why do you help Bengong?" Hearing Lu Qingyao say this, Helan Yu'er couldn't help but raise her head and look at her.

Seeing Helan Yu'er like this, Lu Qingyao was also a little more sure in her heart, and she helped Helan Yu'er up and sat down. He spoke slowly.

"The princess's daughter's body, but today she was so humiliated by Su Qing in front of everyone, doesn't the princess hate it in her heart?"

Lu Qingyao continued to spare no effort to provoke the relationship between the two of them, as long as Helan Yu'er was a little more ruthless to Su Qing, the more certain his plan would be.

"Does the princess want revenge? Maybe I can help you. Lu Qingyao looked at Helan Yu'er with a smile.

The handkerchief in Helan Yu'er's hand was about to be pinched and deformed by her, which showed how big the anger in her heart was.

She admitted that she was ruthless Su Qing, she was a princess of a country but was so humiliated by him, how could this breath be smoked.

"What do you want me to do?" Helan Yu'er raised her eyes and looked at Lu Qingyao, saying word by word.

Looking at her like this, Lu Qingyao thought to himself, very good, the fish has finally taken the bait.

"What I want is the life of the son, and what you want is revival, we can cooperate." Lu Qingyao said to her.

"I don't need you to do it, what you can do is help me get everyone's attention." Lu Qingyao couldn't hand over the important task to Helan Yu'er.

"Why, I listen to you." Helan Yu'er decided to follow Lu Qingyao's arrangement.

"Next month is the emperor's birthday, Su Qing will definitely bring the little prince to the palace banquet, there will definitely be a lot of people in the palace at that time, no one will notice us, what you need to do at that time is to help me create some chaos, lead Su Qing and many ministers away, I will stay in the main hall and attack the prince."

Lu Qingyao put his mouth to Helan Yu'er's ear and whispered about his plan.

After hearing this, Helan Yu'er asked with some confusion: "At the emperor's birthday banquet, how can I create chaos to lead them away." ”

A sly smile appeared at the corner of Lu Qingyao's mouth, and then he whispered, "Didn't Su Qing humiliate you in public today?" When the time comes, you will pretend to be humiliated and hang yourself, and let the palace maids cry and go to the palace to report to the emperor, and the emperor and the ministers will naturally leave to you. ”

After listening, Helan Yu'er nodded, and there was also a sly smile on her face.
